A Breathtaking Elopement in Iceland

Christina and Marissa met through work and quickly became the best of friends before falling in love. After many years of exploring they realized the best part of their adventure was spending it with one another. While enjoying a beautiful sunset in Key West, Florida, Marissa popped the question. The couple chose Iceland for their elopement because they feel Iceland embodies the sense of adventure they have in their relationship.
